Although Mr. and Mrs. Qin didn’t know what exactly made their granddaughter-in-law so impressive.
But to hear it from their son, who was always so tight-lipped and picky, meant her abilities were truly extraordinary.
"—She might be getting recruited by the research institute early."
Mr. Qin dropped another bombshell.
Mrs. Qin: ?...
Her face lit up with a pleasant surprise. "Really?"
Then she asked, "But what about her university studies?"
"Her knowledge already surpasses what’s taught at the university. Besides, if she’s really recruited by the institute ahead of schedule, then it won’t matter if she doesn’t attend. When the time comes, she’ll just need to go back and take the exams."
This was Mr. Qin’s speculation. He could read between the lines of what Old Ji had said.
"That’s wonderful." Mrs. Qin was overjoyed.
The research institute was no ordinary place.
You couldn’t just get in so easily.
This meant her young daughter-in-law was truly outstanding, enough for the research institute to make an exception.
The Qin Family were all happy for Fu Mingxue.
Of course, with one exception—Lan Qingman.
She nearly ground her teeth to dust.
’Why her?!’
’Are the people at the research institute out of their minds? To actually recruit some young girl.’
’Heh, it must be because of the Qin family’s influence.’
’Fu Mingxue must have used the Qin family’s connections. That’s the only way they would have made an exception and recruited her.’
’She’s so shameless.’
’How long has she even been married into the family? And she already dares to use the Qin family’s name for her own gain?’
"—If my sister-in-law is working and going to university, won’t the two children have no one to look after them?"
She tried her best to control the sourness in her tone.
Mrs. Qin shot her a sidelong glance. "Aren’t her parents looking after the children? Besides, I go over to see them often myself."
’That makes sense. If there was nothing wrong with Fu Mingxue, why would she marry a man who had already adopted two children?’
’She’s a university student, so a good job would have been assigned to her in the future. Why would she be content with being a stepmother?’
’She must be the one who can’t have children.’
’Tsk tsk. What right does an infertile woman have to act so high and mighty in front of me?’
’Still, it’s for the best that she’s infertile.’
’That way, the Qin family’s fortune will all belong to my son—’
Fu Mingxue sneezed and rubbed her nose. ’Someone must be badmouthing me.’
「Three days passed in the blink of an eye.」
At four o’clock, Fu Mingxue finally finished.
She was quite satisfied with her work.
However, the system still didn’t show the task as complete.
’It must only count as complete once I officially start the job—’
